When Yang Chen mentioned going out, Rose thought she had misheard, so she asked,
Hubby, did you just say go out?
Yes, my beautiful Miss Rose, wouldn’t you have dinner with this pitiful office worker?
Yang Chen said with a pitiful expression.
Confirming that she didn’t mishear, a myriad of emotions surfaced on Rose’s face. She was joyful and touched, but was even more confused and suspicious, as this didn’t seem like reality.
Then… I’ll go change.
Although she was a woman, Rose was evidently faster at dressing up than other ladies. She simply put on a violet flower print dress and a pair of shiny heels, which covered up her tall and well-developed body without losing any of its allure. Her face which had very little makeup on was beautiful and flawless.
Ten minutes later, she walked out of the bar while holding onto Yang Chen’s arm.
Having understood that Yang Chen wanted to bring her out on a date, Rose’s smile became brighter, the unexpected surprise made her feel like she was in a dream.
Hubby, where are we going for dinner?
Rose ignored the shocked gazes of the Red Thorns Society members outside the bar, and affectionately asked Yang Chen.
Yang Chen pondered for a moment and asked,
Darling Rose, I believe you have a car, right? How about we drive somewhere further away for dinner, that sounds better than walking around at this time.
With bright and beautiful eyes, Rose took out her black iPhone, and made a call.
Little Zhao, send someone to drive the new car I bought earlier this year to the bar’s entrance, I want to use it.
Yang Chen watched as Rose ordered her subordinate. He lamented how he also used to order other people like this, while he had now become a person that someone else orders. Although it was he who asked for it, he was now considered a commoner.
In less than ten minutes, the car that Rose had asked for was parked in front of the bar. The driver got of the car, and handed the keys over to Rose with reverence.
Rose handed the keys over to Yang Chen,
Hubby, you drive. I’m not good at driving.
When a woman who knows how to drive says that they aren’t good at driving, it’s either to act coquettishly, or to be able to look at the man who drives. Rose was a part of the latter.
Yang Chen was rather astonished, for Rose’s sapphire blue car was a make rarely seen in the whole of Huaxia. It was a Lotus, a sports car from Britain.
This sports car was considered high-end overseas. Its trademark design style had a powerful following amongst car enthusiasts, and its beautiful streamline body attracted many female enthusiasts’ eyeballs.
However, it was the first time Yang Chen had seen one in Huaxia. He hadn’t seen one of these even in Lin Ruoxi’s mini museum.
You chose this yourself?
Asked Yang Chen while he opened the door for her.
Rose gracefully sat inside, and put on the seat belt. She showed an embarrassed smile,
I know how to kill and burn, do usury, and commit kidnappings, but know nothing about cars. They showed me some photos, and I chose this because I found it pretty.
Dissatisfied, Yang Chen said,
A lady shouldn’t talk like the boss of a gang, it wouldn’t be nice if you frightened pedestrians.
Aren’t I the boss of a gang!? Rose pouted, but still replied
okay
with a nod.
Driving the Lotus attracted the eyes of countless pedestrians. Yang Chen directly got onto the expressway with Rose, and sped to a lakeside in the suburbs of Zhonghai. There were quite a number of high-end Western cuisine restaurants in that area.
Since he wanted his woman to experience romance and enjoy the beauty of the world, he couldn’t just do a simple date.
Rose may or may not care about such things, but what Yang Chen would do is a different matter.
When they got off the car, Yang Chen grabbed onto Rose’s elbow,
Hold on, I’ll open the door for you.
As he said that, Yang Chen got off and walked over to the other side of the car under Rose’s surprised gaze. He opened the door, and made a gesture to invite her out.
Pretty lady, this way please.
The server’s at the restaurant’s entrance all saw this, but they had seen such antics many times and didn’t think much of it.
But it was different for Rose. It was strange enough that Yang Chen suddenly wanted to bring her out on a date, but he was even treating her like a princess which made her feel awkward. However, she also felt joyful over it, and shyly blushed.
On certain matters, women would take pleasure in it no matter how awkward it is.
The two held hands as they entered the lakeside Western cuisine restaurant. The building had a European style and was made of wood and steel, and had decorations like saddles, hooves, knight’s helmets and armors.
The chandelier lit up the area with dim warm lights, and gave the restaurant a relaxing and romantic ambience.
Yang Chen watched Rose look around with curiosity, and felt even more guilty,
I’ll bring you out on dates more often in the future. You have so much money and thousands of subordinates, yet shut yourself in that tiny room all day, that’s injustice to your own life.
Rose shook her head,
I don’t think so. Ever since I met you, I’ve never felt bored. I’m very happy when you’re with me, and feel satisfied waiting when you’re not.
If I was an actor, I’d definitely shed tears now. Unfortunately, I’m not, but please believe that you’ve touched me.
Yang Chen sincerely said.
This woman had always used the most direct and unintentional ways to move him.
-2: You’ll find out in a moment
Rose sweetly smiled,
Actually, I think I’m not suited to such occasions. Just look, when other women go out, they bring handbags and maybe even a hat, while I just changed my clothes and left home like a country bumpkin.
How about we buy you a handbag later? I don’t think I’ve seen you carry one before, let me buy you one.
Yang Chen enthusiastically asked.
Rose shook her head,
If I needed one, my subordinates would have sent me hundreds of them, my everyday items are bought in bulk. I don’t carry one because I don’t need one. If it was a knife sheath or a gun holster, yeah…… I’d be happier if I can get a limited edition firearm that has already stopped production.
The server who led the two to their table had clearly paused while he walked.
Yang Chen knew that this poor fellow had been frightened, so he couldn’t help but smile and say,
Darling, didn’t I just tell you this earlier? Don’t keep thinking about fighting and killing, flower arranging and gardening are better. Shooting guns, shooting in a girl, and shooting alone in the dark are things for men to do.
Rose rolled her eyes at him and remained silent.
After they sat down, they ordered a bottle of 1983 Lafite. This wine wasn’t cheap by any means, so it made the waitress who served them smile brightly.
But when Yang Chen straightforwardly ordered three steaks, the young lady was stunned.
Sir, do you still have friends that haven’t arrived yet?
The waitress asked.
Yang Chen shook his head and answered,
No, I’m eating three servings by myself.
The waitress then left hurriedly in shock.
Rose frowned and said,
Hubby, eat more vegetables, it isn’t good for the body to eat so much meat.
Yang Chen smiled without a care,
Although scientific research and nutritionists say that eating too much meat is bad for the body, enjoying meat is a habit that I grew up with. All these years, I’ve practically lived on meat and alcohol, yet aren’t I perfectly fine? Furthermore, you should be more knowledgeable about my body than others, darling Rose. I’ve been different from an ordinary human since a long time ago……
When he spoke to the end, Yang Chen subconsciously had a pained expression.
Rose grumbled,
What are you saying? You’re not allowed to say that about yourself, which part of you isn’t normal?’
Knowing that she didn’t like what he said, Yang Chen didn’t say such things anymore. Once the steaks were served, he began to devour on them with his fork and knife.
Although Rose hadn’t ate at a Western cuisine restaurant often, she was born in a well-off family and had good education. She ate gracefully in small bites, and sipped the wine naturally.
The two chatted over the many things that happened over the past year. Looking back, it wasn’t that long, but there were plenty of things worth reflecting over.
While they were in the midst of conversation, a waitress brought over a bottle of Margaux to the table, and said to Rose with a smile,
Miss, a gentleman had me send this bottle of red wine and some words to you.
What gentleman, and what words?
Rose had no idea what was going on.
The waitress said,
The gentleman said that only the royal personality of the Margaux could match your beauty.
Shocked, Rose turned to glance at Yang Chen. Seeing that he didn’t have any reaction, she turned back to the waitress and said,
Return it, I don’t need this.
The waitress was sent back, but a short while later, a scholarly man with neatly combed hair walked over. He wore a suit, leather shoes, and gold-rimmed glasses. Holding the same red wine which was worth over ten thousand, he approached Rose.
Hello Miss, my name is Jiang Wen. I became so bold as to send this bottle of wine because I was entranced by your beauty, I hope I didn’t offend you.
Rose put down her fork and knife, and her brows wrinkled slightly,
I’ve already said that I don’t need it.
Miss, I hope you’ll give me a reason for rejecting me. I believe that if you’re willing to give me an opportunity to know you better, you’ll realize that I’m better than this uncultured man who eats three sets of steak that are twenty two ounces each.
The man Jiang Wen was ridiculing was none other than Yang Chen whose fork and knife didn’t even pause.
However, Jiang Wen’s way of flaunting himself made Rose unhappy. Rose’s expression had begun to darken.
At this time, Yang Chen had finally finished the last piece of beef, and wiped his mouth with a towel. He burped, then said to Jiang Wen,
Hey, is this wine of yours very expensive?
Jiang Wen didn’t even turn to look at Yang Chen, he continued to look at Rose with intoxication as he replied,
Lafite may be the queen of red wines, but it’s still a level below this bottle of Margaux, you wouldn’t understand even if I told you.
That may be the case, but I don’t think I need to know that either.
Yang Chen stood up with a leisurely expression, and suddenly snatched the wine bottle in Jiang Wen’s hands.
How could Jiang Wen manage to hold onto the bottle with his strength? The bottle was immediately in Yang Chen’s possession.
Mister, what are you trying to do!?
Jiang Wen glared.
Yang Chen looked at the wine bottle’s label for fun, then grabbed the neck of the bottle and smiled to Jiang Wen,
You’ll find out in a moment.
As he said that, that, Yang Chen swung the bottle of red wine!
Bang!!!
With the sound of the bottle shattering, wine splashed all over. The ruckus made half of the people in the restaurant jump in fright!
The nearby customers looked in shock!
With that swing, Yang Chen smashed the bottle of wine at Jiang Wen’s head!!!
Jiang Wen’s eyes rolled back, he had no idea whether the redness flowing down his head was blood or wine. Staggering, he took a few steps back, fell against a dining table, and fainted!
Geez, it’s fine that you look down on me for eating so much, but you came over to snatch my woman for no reason, isn’t that asking for death?
Yang Chen threw what remained of the bottleneck at Jiang Wen’s body, then wiped his hands with a towel.
The surrounding people were all stunned. Without even mentioning the pitiful state of Jiang Wen, over ten thousand dollars was just wasted because he smashed that bottle of red wine!
